Every Saturday afternoon, en route to Crapaud, Oliver and I have lunch at A&W followed by a drink at Starbucks.
The drive-thru line at Starbucks today was really long, so we opted to go inside to order, and I was asked for my name by the order-taker.
“Pete,” I told her, using the pseudonym I fall back on for such purposes.
Seeing through my charade—he’s obviously not a Pete, she realized—my cup was labeled BEET.
